[@mattanderson4965]

This movie is the best Dracula film EVER MADE!

With the Most ICONIC Costumes Ever !!! Love this Movie and it made me.cheer for Gary more than anyone Else !!!

Amazing costumes, especially Gary Oldmans! He looks so stunning in the dragon armor, it looked like exposed muscle tissue.

Yep ! very organic armor indeed

That's true. And he's also sexy oh.my god

he looked good but I thought his armor looked like plastic somehow.

[@themysteriousdomainmoviepalace]

I never realized how much energy it took just to wear the glorious costumes, especially Gary Oldman. They all deserved Oscars!

[@nepntzerZer]

I disagree violently. Keanu Reeves and to a lesser extent Winona Rider where absolute garbage in this film, almost to the point of ruining the whole movie. Stand outs where of course Gary Oldman and Anthony Hopkins, but Tom Waits and Sadie Frost where also very memorable. Without a doubt Keanu Reeves is just awful, he's a terrible actor who now can only do films that simulate mass murder.

I am obsessed with this movie and the costumes, this woman was genius

[@metalgearsolid418]

Eu também, Raquel.

[@MarcosLopez-yz2wr]

Love the Gothic romance dating back to actual events. Vlad's family literally went through hell and back.

[@unverifiedbiotic]

Genius in artistic terms, but like many fashion designers, she had no sense of practicality. Looking at all those shots getting ruined because of the suit falling apart makes me cringe.

[@duder-ts3vz]

Completely agree.

[@thedaywhen9741]

The whole movie is one big piece of art.

[@benwatson6729]

My favorite costume in this movie was the dark green velvet gown that Mina was wearing when the movie was nearly at the end.

[@suzannedemarkova9263]

That one is gorgeous.

[@benwatson6729]

@@suzannedemarkova9263 Totally. Someone should ought do a cosplay with that costume. That'll be cool to see.

The costume designer & prosthetics deserved an Oscar - Oldman too for all the different Dracula's

[@henryivan6858]

It won 3 oscars. One of them for Best Costumes :)

[@Mechanicthing]

The dragon armour was a work of genius, and so we’re the kabuki style outfits and hairstyles. Hugely talented woman.

[@therealconniefrancis]

The "Klimt" costume looked very Byzantine which was perfect for what Dracula represented

[@AngelofMusic04]

That's arguably the best outfit in the whole film.

[@jeanandre6998]

@@AngelofMusic04 which one is that?

[@suzannedemarkova9263]

@@jeanandre6998 - The gold plated -gown-like costume Dracula wears towards the end when he's an old man returning to his home land. It's what he's still wearing at the very end, I believe. Look up Gustav Klimt's work "The Kiss" and many other of his artworks to see the influence.

[@javiersaezpinel4536]

Now I understand why the actors (gary and sadie) muved as lizards. Yureis (japanese ghosts) are usually portrayed this way. She endeed gave a tremendous contribution to the film. All an artist.

[@eq1373]

It was described that way in the novel.

[@amandastjohn4735]

​@@eq1373Which, given that Stoker's wife was a devout Catholic, may have been a deliberate homage to the dragon in the Book of Revelation.

This movie will be forever the best Dracula movie! The costumes were impeccable!,!! An the cherry 🍒 of the cake is Gary Oldman ! Love it!

[@josephreynolds1220]

Yea best costumes ever. When Keanu says “we can be mawwied when I weturn” I bought it, cause of his coat.

[@Passin_Thru]

Keanu in an English accent . “ I’ve seen many strange things already” was memorable

Eiko died way too young. So gifted and powerful as an artist. I was thrilled when she won the Oscar for costume design. RIP Eiko.

[@canadey97]

Lucy's vampire look is one of my all time favorite film costumes

[@Sirena101]

So THAT'S why the wolf helmet always looked so much like a samurai helmet! The costume designer used her Japanese influence.

[@drrnfl]

the dragon armor really worked for gary oldman because even though it constricted him, it forced him to lumber around like a large, brooding animal. it added to his character

[@meriemziane5011]

exactly what I was thinking too !

[@miinfl7143]

Especially since Gary Oldman was a skinny dude

[@johndee759]

I love it. His constrictive armer could not constrict of the pain he felt. When he jumped up the altar to stab the cross, you could see anger, rage and power. Probably that costume was annoying and it was greet when Oldman said screw this I am gonna do what I am gonna do.

[@heresfrankbetches921]

I’ve always thought this particular armor looked so stupid in this movie. Looks as made of plastic (which is probably true)

[@nigerianrocker7297]

The best dracula movie ever so timeless #classic Gary oldman potrayed dracula so well wow

[@Zamolxes77]

Yeah, Hollywood is running out of masterpieces to remake, we can expect a Dracula remake soon, with emo vampires running around toting guns.

[@christinaperrigo]

[@zonilo1]

Not exactly the best Dracula movie if you compare it to the book though.

[@sylviagomez9523]

Oh my gosh one of my fav love stories.

[@SmithMrCorona]

Well, that's not really saying much, considering 100% of those previously made were b pictures, or haven't aged well (sorry, Bela). This is the best Dracula film, absolutely, but one best watched on mute. The acting on all levels is atrocious. But, damn, if it isn't beautiful.

[@MDkid1]

I think its a brilliant notion to have the costumes speak louder than the sets, and what creepy, eerie costumes they were...just brilliant!

[@valkyriesardo278]

Aha! Now I understand why the costumes for this film were so memorably outstanding. I am a fan of costuming and these were exquisite.

[@stimsonromano2580]

The best adaptation of the original book, definitely one of my top ten favourite movies of all time.

[@makeupboss3568]

Such beautiful pageantry, the costumes are usually the best part of any big production movie. Love it . RIP Eiko

Fantastic movie. I had decided to buy the movie and the same night on walking the dogs I found the dvd just lying on the pavement ! How creepy is that !

[@TheFiown]

@Lifestyle Benefits of Virginia Yup, it's something that happens a LOT to me. When I was younger I saw a small wooden box in the window of a shop that was closed for lunch, I made a mental note to go back , walked three feet and found the same box sitting on the sidewalk with it's removable lid on it, not thrown, not damaged, perfect. I didn't pick it up at once, tried to get my head around it, the 'other' box was there in the window, identical. I eventually took it home and since then never forgot. Another day, no money, down in life, hungry I was out walking, had a pang of hunger stopped to grab my gut and breath, looked down and I was standing of 30 euros, right at that spot! I have a few of these weird stories.

[@linjoy9627]

I've been luck enough to have visited The Frances Ford Coppola's Nappa Valley winery where there is a museum there with costumes and artefacts from his movies. There were the Oscars for The Godfather and the original desk, an old car - I'm not sure which movie it came from, Sophie Coppela's Mari Antoinette ship. The most amazing costumes were from Dracula, Gary Oldman's war armour from the beginning of the movie, Lucy's wedding dress, photo's and many more items - well worth the visit.

I lover her unusual take on design...where she blended a rather traditional design and juxtaposed it with out-of-this world production.
